woah, blogger like.. totally changed.. *shrug*

so you know how you see all those movies about college or you hear all those nightmare stories about law school, right?

like, you know the one about the person who slept thru her first final b/c she stayed up all night studying? or the person who loses all their notes the day before their final? and you know the one about the person who gets their laptop stolen right before finals and it has all that person's notes, etc etc on it and there's no way to retrieve it? and you think how horrible it would be if it happened to you?

well, i know. T-T

i remember thinking how i was so sad when i missed my first final at berkeley b/c i stayed up all night studying for it (fortunately, i was able to take it later). then the next semester, i lost my notes in the library (i think someone threw them away) for my history class, and i had to just wing it..

then, the night before my FIRST final this semester here at freakin law school, someone stole my laptop. not just the laptop, but my bag too -- which had my class notes in them. so, i basically lost everything. EVERYTHING (even a pair of socks i had in my laptop bag cuz my feet were cold). the ironic thing was that i had moved it from a classroom to my office (where i work on campus) cuz i thought it would be safe there. my laptop is CRAPPY too! they can't even get any money for it. they'd probably have to PAY someone to take it from them.

i tried to come up w/ a list of reasons why it was a good thing that my laptop was stolen and this is what i came up with:
(1) i'm always trying to get rid of things but i can't throw them away b/c i'm a pack rat. now, i can't keep my notes even if i wanted to.
(2) my laptop was really heavy and slow anyway.
(3) now i know that ppl really do steal laptops especially during finals time so i will be more careful.
(4) ummm...
(5) uhhhhh....

people suck.

my semester has been great, how was yours?

AHHH!!! ONE MORE TO GO!!!
